One lucky Breathe Retreat attendee will be floating for free thanks to The Life Spring Float Centre.

The Life Spring Float Centre is a restorative wellness space specialising in floatation therapy.

The high concentration of Epsom salt in the spacious float cabins creates a weightless environment that relieves muscle tension and pressure on joints.

Floatation therapy is also proven to reduce inflammation, lower cortisol, improve sleep and support nervous system regulation. By minimising sensory input, it allows the body to deeply relax and the mind to reset.

We only have a few places left for this event to be held end of March 🍃

Our retreat is thoughtfully designed to support emotional wellbeing, promote nervous system regulation, foster meaningful connection, and provide professional development. It is created specifically for therapists who serve our community with dedication and care.

We are sincerely grateful for the generous support shown by local businesses in contributing to our raffle prize draw.

Breaking Free from the “Should” Trap 🙌

“Shoulding yourself” refers to the habit of using rigid internal rules about how you ought to think, feel, or behave, which can create guilt, shame, and stress rather than motivation. In cognitive-behavioural terms, these “should” statements are a distortion that compares your real self to unrealistic ideals, often shaped by childhood expectations, perfectionism, productivity culture, and social comparison. Living by these imperatives can lead to low self-esteem, burnout, avoidance, and emotional suppression. The way forward involves recognising where these beliefs come from and replacing them with choice-focused language, self-compassion, realistic standards, and values-based action, allowing for more sustainable growth, emotional balance, and authentic well-being.

Healing forward by retraining the mind 💪🧠

Letting go is not a simple decision but a gradual process of mental relearning because the brain becomes attached to familiar emotional patterns, even painful ones, as they feel predictable and safe. Past experiences such as trauma, rejection, or failure create deeply ingrained beliefs about self worth and identity, making it difficult to move forward without reshaping those internal narratives. Stress, anxiety, and depression further strengthen attachment to the past by keeping the nervous system in a survival state and reinforcing overthinking or hopelessness.

Since pain can become part of a person’s identity, releasing it may feel like losing a piece of oneself, which is why intentional emotional retraining is necessary. Therapeutic approaches such as cognitive behavioural therapy, acceptance and commitment therapy, trauma focused therapy, and psychodynamic therapy can help individuals challenge unhealthy thought patterns, process unresolved emotions, and build healthier coping skills. Ultimately, letting go means changing one’s relationship with the past, leading to improved resilience, self esteem, and overall psychological well being.

Over the past 12 years, we at Breathe Counselling have been blessed by a beautiful friendship with the people of Myanmar (Burma). In recent weeks, Nick Gwynn and a small group of teachers, were able to spend some quality time revisiting this war torn country. Over nine days they delivered trauma informed training for leaders, visit orphanages, churches and training facilities. Additionally, they were able to build/ strengthen relationships with key stakeholders (medical, business, community leaders), supporting the facilitation of counselling and mental health support services in a country that needs it. 🇲🇲🫶

When anxiety strikes at night: Ways to find calm and rest 😴

Nighttime anxiety is common and often intensifies when distractions fade and the mind becomes louder. As the day slows down, worries about the past, future, or unresolved stress can surface, keeping the nervous system in a state of alertness. This can make it difficult to relax, settle the body, and fall asleep, especially when anxiety or low mood is already present.

Creating a calming bedtime routine, practising slow and intentional breathing, limiting stimulants such as caffeine, and reducing screen time before bed can help signal safety to the body. Gently addressing underlying stress, journalling thoughts, and seeking support when needed can also make a meaningful difference. With patience, consistency, and the right strategies, nighttime anxiety can become more manageable and restful sleep more achievable.
